Digital Delivery of Independent Media

DVD sales - which have driven the whole movie industry for the last decade - are down the toilet. A digital revolution in past years has gradually unlocked movies and television shows from their traditional formats. Many people have already become accustomed to the idea of owning a purely online product, such as a digital copy of a video game through Valve's Steam service or an ebook like Barnes & Noble's e-reader, for one, allowing book readers to access their books using any device with the B&N application installed. But now a wider mass of consumers can get ready to say goodbye to those DVD box sets, and greet a more ethereal type of cloud ownership.
